...so are the days of my life. Thirty-four days left of sand quickly slipping away til the big shebang. Thing #2 weds Thing #2.1. I am far from the only madre'-of-the-bride to feel overwhelmed, right? But I am not so sure other MOB's tend to get as bogged down in details as moi. Kinda makes the hourglass sand morph into quicksand. The perils of being a perfectionist.
"Tag, You're It"
"Framing the Fam"
I know this too shall pass, and too quickly at that. Trying to enjoy every moment in the quicksand. Added to my list of things to do? Not stress about the mess of a house, or the shrinking checking account balance (disclaimer: I added that last one to appease the Better-Half). The devil is in the details. That's why I'm just gonna ignore those last two details for now. Afterall, who needs the devil AND quicksand?!?
Here's where I "link up" today.
Please join me on Sundays for Song-ography.
This week's song title is the Zac Brown Band's "Chicken Fried".
I admire you sticking with the perfectionista. I fell off that wagon a looong time ago, but then sometimes I regret....but I don't miss the stress.
ReplyDeleteI'll be home in a week to obsess over details with you! Can't wait :o)
ReplyDeleteAhhhh...you DO look at my blog! :)
DeleteI've been wondering how close you were?! There was no detail that we fussed over that didn't deliver on the big day. The wedding felt like it was ours ~ the choices we made and the things we made together were the icing on the cake on that day. I worked my butt off until a few days before...then let it go and made it all about the people. No doubt the best part was sharing the process with my girl, so I'm glad to see yours will be home soon to obsess with you!
ReplyDeleteSuch an exciting time! So much to look forward to and so much to hold onto as well!
ReplyDeleteI'm sure it will all be perfectly beautiful!
ReplyDeleteAll will be worth it! I'm super Thing #2 appreciates all your efforts to make the day memorable. Everything I have seen has been stunning!
ReplyDeleteI know-it's all going to be perfect! And if not-it's ok-really!!! So excited for you and all your things-and new things added to the family!!
ReplyDeleteAwe, but how lovely the results of that quicksand. If the tags and frames are any indication it will indeed be fabulous.
ReplyDeleteHave a great week, but do remember to breath once in a while.
Looks like it will be a memory filled occasion. Two close friends helped with some of the details I worked on a MOG. Wonderful memories of shared fun with little worry of just how perfect each napkin ring looked.
ReplyDeleteIt sounds like it is going to be a beautiful day. How exciting.
ReplyDeleteHugs~

ReplyDeleteThe beauty of it all is that it is happening and any little imperfection or missed detail will matter little. Enjoy every moment.
